Why is Astra Starter Sites not working?

Hi. I read your reviews and thought I should try Astra. I wanted to try the free demos before getting the $99 subscription. However, even on a new site, The starter sites won't load. The wheel just keeps turning (importing content) but nothing loads. I haves searcehd the net and I don't see any similar complaints. I tried on two different Clean websites that I own, so I'm able to wipe everything, delete WP & plugins, and install afresh. Even that doesn't help. I don't like the apparent lag in OceanWP carousels so I really need Astra to work.

So weird, I have the same problem, it should be so easy but I can't figure out why the theme doesn't display correctly, I imported the theme on a brand new fresh site, host: Siteground PHP: 7.0.30 I am following Adam 4 hours video tutorial step by step but I am stuck already.

I am also facing same error. (object object) struggling with this error from last two days. Created completely new website. but not able to solve issue with new downloads of plugins. not able to import astra sites. But no luck. Logged complain to Astra but waiting for answer.

I'm also getting this error. I followed all the steps. Our hosting is topnotch WordPress optimized and using PHP 7.0.. I hope the people at Astra reading their tickets (I also send one), we just started with them so hope they can let us know what is wrong.

They told me they fixed the issue and that I needed to update the plugin. I went to the plugins and there was no update available. I didn’t bother with it because I had already moved on from building with an astra site. Deleted the plugin and just used Beaver Builder.

Hi all, I have a fix for this that worked for my object object Astra Site Import error. if you update your php version temporarily to 7.3 and then do the import it should work. Php version change can be done in cPanel of hosting provider. Once done, revert php version back and it should be fine. Otherwise I think Astra have just released an update to the Stater Sites Plugin, apparently, you can just update this plugin and it should work. Please back up site before php version switch. Good luck.

This issue is now fixed. I emailed support earlier today describing the issue with a screenshot of the error – they responded approx 6hrs later saying a hot fix was applied, resulting in Astra Starter Sites v1.2.9 Anyone still experiencing this issue should update the plugin to this version asap.

Right, In Astra Sites plugin version v1.2.9 the issue is fixed. Update your plugin to v1.2.9.

Just for reference.

In recent WordPress release, they check the real MIME type of the uploaded file. We have used XML file while importing the site. For this, some PHP version returns the text/xml and some application/xml which trigger the file permission error.
